4.27

The World is either the Effect of Contrivance or Chance; If the latter, 'tis a World for all that, that is to say, 'Tis a Regular and Beautiful Structure. Now can any Man discover Symetry in his own Shape, and yet take the Universe for an Heap of Rubbish? I say the Universe, in which the very Discord, and Confusion of the Elements, settles into Harmony and Order. 13
